I made this a few times a long while back. Then kind of forgot about it cause we really liked it but it was just kind of dry. Well a good friend of mine recently tried it and said she really liked it but also thought it was on the dry side. So we got our heads together and did some thinking. Mostly we just doubled the "gravy" part;) It's really good now! My whole family thinks it's Super Tasty! I think it's Simple cause I don't have to roll out pie crusts ;) And of course it's Healthy!
Veggie Pot Pie
4 medium carrots, sliced
3 medium potatoes, chopped
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
4 Tablespoons melted coconut oil
4 cups vegetable broth (I mix my own with Homemade Vegetable Broth Powder)
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups mushrooms of choice (I have used chopped Portabello, fresh sliced, or canned sliced when I didn't have fresh;)
1 Large onion, chopped
2 cups Frozen green peas
Biscuit Topping (recipe below)
Cook carrots and potatoes in water in saucepan until tender-crisp. Blend flour into melted coconut oil in medium saucepan over low heat. Cook for 3 minutes or until smooth and bubbly, stirring frequently. Stir in vegetable broth gradually; increase heat to medium. Cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Stir in poultry seasoning, salt, pepper. Place chopped onion, mushrooms, and frozen peas in baking dish or dishes. (I have used a deep cake pan or 2 deep 9 inch pie pans. If they are small pie tins you could probably use three or 4 my deep dish ones were really full. You can see in the picture that they some spilled over the sides while cooking;) Drain carrots and potatoes place them in the pan also. Pour in broth mixture over the vegetables. Top with Biscuit Topping. Bake in preheated 400 degree oven for 45 minutes or until topping is golden brown.

ReplyDeleteHey Tam!
ReplyDeleteThank you for leaving me a comment on my blog! It gave me the chance to come over to visit yours!
Beautiful food you have here! I definitely want to try the pie, the cabbage salad and those amazing looking cookies! Thank you for the recipes :)
Congrats on your homeschooling! We homeschooled for 10 years ourselves and we are unschoolers now.
I love this and my kids love it too, which makes it great. I should try doubling it, then it will make it even better. I have never tried portobello mushrooms and now I am a huge fan!
ReplyDeleteI think this is the exact pie that my family helped Tammies family eat! Mmmmmmm! It was delicious! I'm glad to have the recipe now... Thanks, Tammie!
